nuts

[wayne petty]

i have also went around the block...  parked.. put money in the meter..    walked into a store with the words NUTS over the door.. only to be VERY disappointed that they really were nuts..  as in the edible kind..


there used to be the Greatest surplus store here in los angeles..   called washington hardware...  it was on washington blvd.. just west of western ave..

they had  stuff from WWII... and LOTS of it..

i don't know in all the years i wandered around that store.. if i ever saw into every bin..  i kept finding new isles.. a few locked doors..  i cried when they closed... the scrap guy came and tossed it into trash bins and sold it for weight.

i went around with 5 gallon buckets... bought as much as i thought i could ever use...  i don't know where those 30 gallons of fasteners are . i know that some friends helped me move my storage locker .. and i have not seen them since..
